Suddenly, I became very hungry, so I drive through McDonald's at 2 AM. By the way, those 24 hour McDonald's are the best inventions-- ever. Plus, they don't switch to breakfast until 4 AM. Yes, burgers and fries all night! How I wish Burger King would do the same.
Anyway, I paid for my food with a $10 bill. I received some coins and three singles as change. The money was stuffed into my shirt pocket. I inhaled the Big Mac and fries in McDonald's parking lot. As I drove home, something didn't smell right. I did more sniffing around when I got in the house It was the three singles I received as change at McDonald's. I had never encountered such horrible smelling money in my life. It reeked of cigarette smoke.
There was one quick and easy solution. I threw the three dollars in the sink, squirted the bills with soap, and washed them. Problem solved.
Now, I've been accused of being Felix Unger. I'm fussy. I'm tidy. I'm a neat freak. There are some things I can let slide, but I draw the line at malodorous money!
I hope the person who gave the singles to McDonald's had a good time smoking and presumably drinking. The money had that "bar" aroma. I also hope the person who received the singles after me appreciates the springtime freshness.
